I use the xml2-config simple for the reason it is the same way
as used for the curl component.

A second reason can be that it is from the released and installed
version if you update the system from source.
I (maybe others too) may not update the system xxxx libraries 
because the released packages are compiled with it.
Using --prefix=/some/where/on/earth :)
The curl problem I had with Yast i.e. is solved this way.

And the 3' reason is when you have no GNOME, a bare system build.
Then the source is maybe the only correct one.

(btw it is working now, the trick to /usr/local/ works :) )
